C2Net-Device Slot in Configuration Manager

To incorporate a C2N-DAP8RC into the system, drag the unit’s symbol from the
Cresnet Control Modules | Cresnet Audio Modules folder of the

Device Library

and

drop it in

System Views

. The PRO2 system tree displays the unit in Slot 9, with a

default Net ID of 50, as shown in the following illustration.

NOTE:

The first C2N-DAP8RC in a system is preset with a Net ID of 50 when its

symbol is dragged into the upper pane of

System Views

. Additional C2N-DAP8RCs

are automatically assigned different Net ID numbers as they are added.
